## FAQ

### Do I need an API key to use the server?

You can connect and use catalog tools like searching and listing APIs without a key, but executing an API requires one.

### What happens if an API call fails?

Failed calls are not charged to your account.

### Can I use this without installing the package?

Yes, clients that support remote Streamable HTTP can point directly to the hosted URL.
